Getting Here and Getting Around

San Pedro Visitor Center
The San Pedro Visitor Center is a great place to start your visit and to use as a central point of reference. The Center is located at 225 W. 6th Street, Downtown.

By Automobile
San Pedro is located at the southern end of the Harbor Freeway (Interstate 110). The freeway exits onto Gaffey Street, which runs completely through town as a major north-south thoroughfare. Interstate 110 connects to a number of freeways to the north.

From Long Beach and points east, State Route 47 (Ocean Blvd.) connects to San Pedro across Terminal Island via two bridges. Exit at Harbor Blvd. off the Vincent Thomas Bridge for the Waterfront, or continue on to Gaffey Street.

From the South Bay beach cities, take Pacific Coast Highway south to I-110 southbound into San Pedro.
